Published by NOAA National Centers for Environmental Information | National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration, Department of Commerce | Metadata Last Checked: January 29, 2026 | Last Modified: 2025-04-18T00:00:00.000+00:00

This data set contains bottom temperature data collected by thermistors mounted on lobster boats in the North Atlantic Ocean and Stellwagen Bank. The accession consists of one .csv file containing the following variables - the location the temperature was recorded( site), the latitude (degrees N), longitude (degrees W), depth (m) and sea water temperature (degrees C) for each record. This data was collected as part of the Environmental Monitors on Lobster Traps (eMOLT) project. This project is a non-profit collaboration of industry, science and academics devoted to the monitoring of the physical environment of the Gulf of Maine and the Southern New England Shelf.
